Where’s the Beef — Wellington

Fella named Ryan wrote to say he’s stumped. A friend of his wants to know where to get Beef Wellington in Seattle, and Ryan’s drawing a blank. Me too. The only thing I can come up with is the Portobello Wellington at Cafe Flora (Where’s the beef? Who cares! It’s fabulous without it.) And I considered sending him to Anchorage, AK for the best Beef Wellington ever — at the Marx Bros. Cafe, where I worked for seven years in the 80s (best job I ever had)!. But even they don’t serve that classic dish any longer. Can anybody help?
